It seems as though when steel frame bike hit higher hours the bike flexes or moves more, is there anyway other then gusseting the frame to revive it so you speak? Does heat treating steel frames do anything like it does to aluminum? Steel stretches so I’ve been told and it sure would be nice to have that new feel when the hours get up there. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
As far as heat treating a used frame, that has presumably already been heat treated when new, I'm not sure how that would shake out.
What I've always meant to ask and will tack onto this topic, welding repairs to heat treated steel frames... What's the deal with this?
